Show Notes
Will Slattery, Luke Fitzgerald and Cian Tracey look back on Ireland's opening World Cup warm-up match against Italy. Andy Farrell's men got the win but the Ireland head coach won't be too happy with a number of aspects of the performance. Caelan Doris gave a Man of the Match display at number 7, as the debate continues about whether he should ever be moved from the number eight jersey. The lads were impressed with young second row Joe McCarthy while Jacob Stockdale's defensive lapse wasn't his best moment. The debate to back up Johnny Sexton was up for discussion too, with Jack Crowley's assured game putting more pressure on Ross Byrne ahead of the England game.
